1 . Lie Yu Kou (Lie Zi) was showing Bo Hun Wu Ren his archery(射箭) skill. He________the bow to its full extent, had a cup of water________on his elbow, and released the arrow. As soon as the first arrow flew off, a second one was wound up. The moment the second one was winged, a third was ready, and all of them lodged in the same place. During all this time, his________was as still as a statue.

After his performance, Lie Zi asked Bo Hun Wu Ren, “What do you think of my archery skill?”

Bo Hun Wu Ren laughed, “This is still only a(an)________shot, not quite the perfect shot yet. Let’s climb up the mountain and stand on the________overhanging the abyss (深渊). We’ll see if you can________an arrow.”

Wu Ren then led Lie Zi up to a place eight hundred feet above a deep valley. Wu Ren turned his________to the edge of the cliff,________moving his feet until he was standing with his heels extending over the edge, and________Lie Zi to join him. Lie Zi was so________that he threw himself down on the ground, sweating from head to toe.

Bo Hun Wu Ren raised the bow and shot the arrows from his bow, with no________missed. Then he looked at Lie Zi and said________. “The best archer can look up at the blue________, down at the nether (地下的) world and to the eight poles of the earth but still keep________. Here on this mountain, you're already________, so your chances of hitting your mark are very slim”.
